Windows 12 could be another costly upgrade for supporters of Microsoft operating systems. A new report reveals that the AI-dominated OS will require AMD and Intel CPUs with a dedicated NPU. Possibly surfacing in late 2026, the follow-up to Windows 11 may also rely on subscriptions.
I think this highlights Microsoft’s inability to connect with its customers even more than the AI and shit.
They really just do not give a shit about the consumer, at all.
Its insane people put up with it on their own personal machines I get for work or whatever.
Microsoft is absolutely fucking deranged just like that freak who’s leading them. Dealing with them as an enterprise customer is a fucking nightmare, their docs suck, their support, which you pay for btw, is adversarial just like their OS. I fucking hate Microsoft in my bones, so I love when I see them doing submental shit like this to themselves
SharePoint is the bane of my existence. Sorry, I can’t find the file you’re looking for because all the files are saved in one folder and fuck you for expecting the filter function to work. I hope you remember the exact filename and enjoy scrolling for 5 minutes.
The best thing about sharepoint is I can hook into PA and automate away most of the annoying parts of it
Never thought I’d miss bill gates, but jesus christ microsoft has been a spiral of awful ideas and terrible implementations since he stepped down.
They replaced their customer sales people with AI. Then AI decides the best use of hardware is on more AI…
The infernal machine devours itself.
The truth is that you and I are not their customer. The business to business sales are their primary concern, and many companies would be fine forking over a little extra cash for the “AI operating system”.
The average home user is an afterthought.
Agreed. I think it has gotten worse over time. Operating systems for consumer PCs are a mature market and they don’t really have commercial rivals. It’s Mac, Windows, or Linux and most people never really consider Linux. So, they use Windows to push their other products and not so much as a product in itself.
